We present the near-infrared (Ks-band) luminosity function of galaxies in two z~1 cluster candidates, 3C336 and Q1335+28. A third cluster, 3C289, was observed but found to be contaminated by a foreground system. Our wide field imaging data…

Deep B- and R-band CCD images of the central ~700 arcmin^2 of the Coma cluster core have been used to measure the dwarf-galaxy population in Coma. In this paper, we describe a newly developed code for automated detection, photometry and…

We analyse Spitzer MIPS 24micron observations, and SDSS (DR7) optical broadband photometry and spectra, to investigate the star formation (SF) properties of galaxies residing in the Coma supercluster region. We find that SF in dwarf…

We investigate the LF in the very relaxed cluster Abell 496. Our analysis is based on deep images obtained at CFHT with MegaPrime/MegaCam in four bands (ugri) covering a 1x1 deg2 region, which is centered on the cluster Abell 496 and…

The lack of success of Lyman-alpha searches for high-redshift (z>2) field galaxies may be due to extinction by dust, suggesting that surveys based on lines of longer wavelength, particularly H-alpha, may be more effective. To test the dust…

The two-point angular correlation function of galaxies, \wte, has been computed from a new survey of faint galaxies covering a 2 deg$^2$ area near the North Galactic Pole. This survey, which is complete to limiting magnitudes \jmag=24 and…

We have carried out a study of the luminosity function (henceforth LF) of galaxies in the region of the HDF-North using our very complete redshift catalog. We solve for the LF at four rest frame wavelengths from 0.24 to 2.2mu. We find that…

(Abridged) The Sloan Digital Sky Survey now extends over a large enough region that galaxies in low density environments can be detected. Rojas et al. have developed a technique to extract more than 1000 void galaxies with delta rho/rho <…

The spectroscopic properties of galaxies in the Coma cluster are compared with those of galaxies in rich clusters at $z \sim 0.5$, to investigate the evolution of the star formation history in clusters. Luminous galaxies with $M_V \leq -20$…

Using new Keck DEIMOS spectroscopy, we examine the origin of the steep number counts of ultra-faint emission-line galaxies recently reported by Dressler et al. (2011). We confirm six Lyman Alpha emitters (LAEs), three of which have…

We present results from a near-infrared narrow-band survey of emission-line galaxies at z=2.23, using the Wide Field Camera on the United Kingdom Infrared Telescope. The H2S1 narrow-band filter (lambda_c=2.121um) we employ selects the…

We construct rest-frame luminosity functions at 3.6, 4.5, 5.8, 8 and 24 microns over the redshift range 0<z<2 for galaxies and 0<z<4 for optical QSOs, using optical and infrared data from the Spitzer Wide-area InfraRed Extragalactic survey.…

High sensitivity 21-cm HI line observations, with an rms noise level of \sim 0.5 mJy, were made of 35 spiral galaxies in the Coma Supercluster, using the refurbished Arecibo telescope, which resulted in the detection of 25 objects. These…
